Hello Lovely Year 7 and Year 9 Students,

Join us for some Pizza and Snacks to prep for maths NAPLAN! Read on to find out the details!

In Term 2, week 4, you will sit your NAPLAN test. Why do you have to sit a NAPLAN test?  This test was introduced for three reasons. First, to see how individual students are performing; second, the extent to which national literacy and numeracy benchmarks are being achieved at each school; and third, how well educational programs are working in Australian schools.  As such, it is important for you to do your best, so we (teachers) have some real data to see how you’re traveling.  

NAPLAN math's test covers all areas of math and incorporates questions from your current year as well as years gone by. Therefore, NAPLAN is an opportunity to do some overall revision with your numeracy skills. You need maths in life! Spending time revising for NAPLAN is overall good for you! Come join us for pizza and snacks- you can work  with your friends and/or with Year 10, Year 11 and Year 12 students, revising NAPLAN questions from previous years. There will be “stations” you can rotate through….the idea is that this will be fun and stress-free.

When: Term 2: Week 1, 2, & 3

Where: Frayne 1 & 2

When: Wednesday every lunchtime

If you would like a $5 Domino’s pizza (we will provide snacks), please see your Math's teacher [Mrs McPherson, Mr Cook, Mrs Ellis, Ms Jones or Ms Badcock] upon returning to school in Term 2, for the sign-up sheet and they will also collect payment.

We truly hope to see you there!!

Mrs McPherson 
Secondary Teacher
